Chapter 1-My best friend

The calender marked the 4th of july in the year 2012.
Satomi joined St. Freya two years ago.
This was also the first time she met
Elham, her only and very best friend.
The two lived togheter in a dorm and it was a pure chaos.
The two slept between dirty clothes, trash and dust.
The two prefer it to train and to study instead of cleaning their dorm.

Elham and Satomi where both training in hand to hand combat outside at the training fields.
Elham threw a kick against Satomi but she dodged just in time.
Satomi attacked back with a mighty punch at the ribs.
Elham let out a groan.
"You got better. In something about a year or two, you will be better than me." Elham said.
"Don't be rediculous. You are the stronger one from us both."
Satomi said. She admited it a long time ago. She will never be as good as her best friend. But she can try to get better so she won't be useless.
"Whatever." Elham said and came closer to Satomi "Are you going to take the A-Rank exam?" She asked.
Satomi looked down at the floor.
She was unsure if she even should try.
Staying at B-Rank isn't something unusual. Is she even good enough for A-Rank? They are supposed to lead and to fight alone if the situation needs it.
Elham suddenly flicked Satomi's forehead.
"H-Hey!" Satomi shouted out.
Elham looked serious at the white haired female.
"You have a great strengh but you don't see it yet. Soon or later, you will be above A-Rank." Elham said deadly serious.
Was she for real?
"Elham, are you okay? Why are you so serious?" Satomi asked worried.
"Don't worry about me, Sato. Let's head back to the dorms, im tired." Elham said.

The two headed back to their home.
Elham was unusually quiet and Satori was worried.
"Elham, why are you so quiet? Is it because of the exams? I don't think i would pass but i can try!" Satori said to her best friend. But deep in her heart, she knew she would never be good enough to be as strong as Elham.
"No....I just had a little fight with someone i know. But don't be worried."
Elham said. Satomi didn't dare to ask more questions.
"Okay, i won't be worried but only if you promise me to talk with me if something is bothering you."
Satomi said and took Elham's hand.
She looked her friend in the eyes.
Elham chuckled as she was amused of the innocent behaviour from her friend.
"Fine by me. You are just as cute as ever." Elham said smiling and blushed.

The two reached the dorms and Satomi opened the door. They where greeted by the smell of trash.
The friend duo looked at the amount of trash and old clothes.
"Satomi. We need to clean this mess up."
Elham said disgusted by their own home.
"Yup. When did we even clean the last time?" Satomi asked seriously.
"I think we never realy cleaned since we meet. We rarely took the trash out and washed some of our clothes but never did more."
Elham said and smiled nervously.
"And we ate takeout for most of the time. Do we even have plates?"
Satomi asked.
"I guess we have to find out." Elham said unhappy.
The duo got into the big mess and started cleaning up.
Taking all the trash away and picking up the clothes that lay around. After that, they picked up the stuff that just lay around and either threw it away or kept it in a closet. Satomi was Vacuuming the floor while Elham threw their dirty clothes in the washmachine.
In the end, They cleaned the floor and opened all windows to get the smell out.
It took them something about three hours to get done with everything.
"We did it!" Satomi said happly and threw her hands in the air.
"Yeah. And we actually have plates."
Elham said and was kinda amused.
It took them some time but they finaly made it to clean up.
Satomi let out a yawn and streatched.
"I will go sleeping now. Nighty night."
Satomi said and got to her bedroom.
,,Sleep well." Elham said and sat down on the couch.
She heared how Satomi's door closed.
Elham pulled out her phone and played for half an hour a game on it.
Satomi didn't came out of her room.
That means she was realy sleeping.
Satomi would normaly join Elham again when she couldn't sleep but this wasn't the case this time.

Elham pulled out her phone and recived a call from someone unknown.
She picked up and a dark, female voice said "How is she doing?"
"Her stigma is still not awakend."
Elham said.
"Sad but she wasn't necessary for our plan. We will continue like planned and get you out of there."
The voice said.
"Jackal. She isn't ready, she will die if we continue like planned."
Elham said worried.
"And? She could also survive. But it would be way better for us if he survives. He has a fully awoken stigma. And The serpent has no need for people like this girl." The voice said cold. The other person didn't even care a bit about the live of others.
"And...if she decites to join us?" Elham asked.
She hoped that she could change Satomu's dark fate.
"Didn't you hear what i said? We need Stigmas but her's is not awoken!" The voice started to get annoyed.
"But-!" Elham tryed to say but the female didn't let her continue speaking.
"Enough! We will continue with the plan. Let me know when and where your next mission is. Maybe she is lucky and won't be with you."
The voice said and hung up.
Elham threw her phone against the wall. She was angry.
"Sato, please stay alive." Elham said woth tears in her eyes.
